small love

Young and pretentious love cannot hide the small and cruel heart. Recently, I read a lot of film reviews written by people, and I went back and forth to watch the scenes in the film. I saw the male protagonist crying sadly and giving up and finally wept a lot. I saw netizens write that they were moved by their love and wept. I guess there is no court. How would they have blossomed without the Nazis. Many people, how determined, blamed her imprisoned misery on her hasty confession out of dignity and shame, stubbornly believing that he loved her and even paid the price for her life. But what about the result? Love is so small and vulnerable, when disaster strikes, it will fly by itself. He, a young German who grew up in the new era, has never seen the desolation caused by the war, nor has he experienced the hearts of people in that era of rampant nationalism. The distance between him and her is far from the 21-year time difference, but the unbridgeable gap created by the times between them.
In court, her words were like Hitler's textbooks or historical reports
: "Why lock the door? Obviously for the simple reason, we must. Because we are guards and our job is to escort prisoners. , we can't let them escape."
Hannah is not only a competent employee, she is also smart and aura: "If we open the door, there will be chaos. How can we restore order? It all happened so fast, it was still snowing. , the village is full of flames and bombs, followed by screams and things are getting worse. If they all come out, we can't let them escape, we have to be responsible!!" (She also knocked on the table very excitedly at this time. )
What's the problem, what if the prisoners were not "innocent" Jews, but murderers who committed serious crimes, or criminals who endangered national security? Will such guards be praised or sentenced? Think about the role and status of the Jews in the hearts of Germans in those days? Think about today, let alone being burned to death, even if they are executed prisoners under the muzzle of a gun and a poison needle, are they respected enough? Why do so many unjust, false and wrongful convictions take years to be clarified years after executions?
Times have endowed human beings with roles, positions and missions, and human beings are groping forward on the road of constantly trampling and hurting each other. There is still a long, long way to go. Intimidation like killing chickens to show the monkeys is useless and useless. Otherwise, how could there be massacres in Rwanda, and how could some major powers launch hateful acts under the banner of the United Nations at the turn of the century? war? ! See, history always repeats itself, the so-called morality has never really existed between countries, and the so-called justice is just a side word. What value scale did we stand on to control the second half of Hannah's life? How did a former female prison guard pay the price for the cruelty of an era and a nation?
But this is not the point. Hannah is a victim of the times. She lived to the end of World War II and must bear the crime. So it's not a good thing to live long. Even though she admitted that she could not write, the fact and crime of burning the prisoners to death was undeniable and still made the surviving Jews extremely angry. The survivors of the court, trying to make the "criminal" pay back what she had done to her in the past, as if they had exchanged the past for each other. Hannah has endured all this in silence, and what really saddens me is that so-called love has been given over to self-righteousness. You see, he is selfish, he never thought about what Hannah thought and how to get through that period of "loss of humanity and morality", he thought he was the embodiment of morality from the beginning, and Hannah lost her conscience The behavior is shock. When it came time for her to be released from prison, after so many long decades, he was still childishly like a child, and he couldn't wait to ask in the capacity of a moral person: "What about now? What do you think now?" He added. : "I don't think you understand the problem." The white-haired she said, "I understand, little guy. I learned to read." In the end, he stopped and left. She looked lost, as if they had never been in love with each other. . She survived because of love, and lived the most lonely and difficult life. In the end, it was a dream or a terrible nightmare. It can't help but feel sad.
It turns out love is just a lie Where am I superior? Unfortunately, it turns out that you have also become a victim of the times. You were born in chains, and that small heart, not even love can enlarge it. It was only then that we really stood together.
So in the end, The Reader is actually a rather unfortunate story. The so-called profundity and reflection did not make people feel happy.


After 2010.9

, I thought that it would be stupid to pursue the system. XD
